10to8 Appointment Scheduling Software vs. Thryv

I think the competitive booking sites, to my understanding, offer more integrated full-office functions like client history, visit or product payments, etc.

Thryv is not for everyone! It all depends on the needs of the individual's business. If they are wanting to scale back on the number of tools they have to use and pay for, to accomplish their business needs and those tools include a scheduler, Social Media planning/posting tool, an email marketing tool, etc. then Thryv could be for them! If they are looking for a tool to automate some of the communications with their clients, Thryv could be a fit there, too! BUT if they are a small business, solopreneur, and need to start with the entry package BEWARE! The Premium package doesn't have the basic things that the more expensive packages do. One is a customized email signature so you can have you logo, picture, etc. in your email signature. This wasn't offered at all a year ago. I asked for it to be added. Evidently others did too because this week I got an email that they had added it BUT NOT for the Premium Package. Something that is basic that EVERYONE should have access to BUT you have to pay more! It didn't make me feel like a valued customer that's for sure.

The tool is the all singing and dancing ultimate appointment and scheduling tool suitable to almost any business that requires their customers/ clients to book in for a service. Has so many features and works really well with many third party tools that can save you a lot of time and hassle. It would of been a 10 if 10to8/had its own mobile app not web based app

It is very easy to use and the features are great for the ones we utilize. If you have any issues at all, customer service or our sales rep is great to work with and fixes what issues I have. They are always willing to help out and to follow up to make sure you don't have any more issues.

I've only had to reach out to customer service twice, but both times the people that I spoke to were quick to respond, knew what they were talking about and were able to walk me through fixing the issues.

Although getting through to the right person may take a while, they have the ability to take over your screen and always assist with whatever you need.

We can't schedule directly through MyCase, but we sync our 10to8 account with multiple calendars. Smith.ai schedules appointments for us by clicking on a link. We use Calendly for some appointments, but it's more expensive.

I chose Thryv not just because the price was budget-friendly but because of the ease of use and ability to learn how to leverage the platform to meet my business's growing needs.

Incentivized

• The tool makes my business look professional online and helps me manage my business as a whole with calendar syncing and zoom conferencing meeting integrations to name a few.
• If insights and analytics is what you are after you can also run reports and download them to use for monthly or quarterly business reviewing.
• The time saved using 10to8 is priceless. You can import or create intake forms for each service that you can make as a requirement for your clients to complete.

Incentivized

• Increased Social Media Presence has kept us in touch with clients
• I believe our overall package has resulted in increased web traffic. More clients are finding us through social media and web searches than any other year before.
